Connecting The Microphone; Shoulder Strap Installation; Rubber Foot Installation - Yaesu FT-817nd Operating Manual

To connect the microphone, plug its connector (latch side UP) into the MIC jack on the
right side of the transceiver. Press it
gently inward until you hear the
"click" of the latch.
To disconnect the microphone, press
gently on the "PUSH
top of the microphone connector's rubber boot.
While pressing on this spot, gently pull the con-
nector outward from the body of the transceiver.
Note: During "Digital" or "Packet" operation, it is not necessary to disconnect the micro-
phone, as activation of the PTT line from the DATA connector automatically cuts off the
audio input from the MIC jack.
The convenient Shoulder Strap is designed for maximum comfort and security for your FT-
817 transceiver.
